RHEL 2.1 : samba (RHSA-2004:404)

Updated samba packages that fix a buffer overflow issue are now
available.

Samba provides file and printer sharing services to SMB/CIFS clients.

The Samba team discovered a buffer overflow in the code used to
support the 'mangling method = hash' smb.conf option. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
name CVE-2004-0686 to this issue.

All users of Samba should upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain an upgrade to Samba-2.2.10, which is not vulnerable to this
issue.
